Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?
You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know… morons.

This isn’t just slop — it’s a steaming pile of trash.
Interested to know if this is affecting certain cultures more than others. Here (UK) we seem to find a lot of Americans “false” in the way they communicate because it’s too big, too obvious. “You’re trying too hard to be nice”. We’ll understate both positive and negative comments.
It would suggest Brits wouldn’t trust a sycophantic LLM as much, but I wonder if that’s true.
Even that’s cultural. We aren’t “nice” in New England and that really bothers the southerners.
Yeah, it has always seemed creepy to me how positive it is about anything you ask it.
I hardly ever use it, and when I do I imagine I am talking to a beautiful saleswoman with a large name tag with the logo of the company.
The AI may be pretty, but it always represents someone else’s interests
Use it enough and you’ll see it’s not like that. There’s plenty it will push back on. Depending on the ai… you can see the narrative they are pushing through what it pushes back on.
There are some topics it absolutely denies.
In the future you will only be able to prove you are a human by simply being a contrarian.
pfft. that will never happen.
Verfied Human. Comment approved.
Last time it said I had a realy galaxy brain idea. I wish we could tone down the sycophant mode.
